    That's not very nice.

    Do you want the same model range too

    Me, I couldn't give 2 hoots as it makes Forge World stuff look more attractive, and any excuse to buy FW is good by me. Anyway if we spend more money on our crack, then we will love them more. It's win win really

    But ALL PRICES haven't gone up have they ? I know Dire avengers earlier in the year effectively doubled in cost and the new marine tactical set is £25 now. But I don't recall there being an over all price increase now or earlier in the year.

    I was mostly happy with them...
    Converting really meant something not just a plastic arm swap

    Sorry mate, I'm much happier with the new replacement models, Wraith Guard being an example.

    Some do go up (Dire Avengers).

    But then, some stop being £8 a model (Wraithguard)

    But shhh. Don't tell the internets.

    This must be the cost of living crisis that Milliballs keeps banging on about

    No that was the housing bubble Brown encouraged as it looked prosperous.

    Well bonus point awarded to Johnathon Lloyd for the right and intended answer, special bonus point to ChaosChrist for realizing you could cheat the question by buying multiples of a single box (I knew that I should have split the torsos and legs of the tyranid warriors between the boxes).

    Back on topic, if anyone has access to historical prices for the same figures over time, I'll compute it compared to the inflation rates and Consumer Price Index. Then we can see if GW really are greedy *******s or if we're all just turning into "In my day, you could go to the disotheque, buy four pints of ale in the pub before and still have enough for your bus fare home, all for 50p".

    EDIT: Huh. It censored "*******". Bless!
